A secondary Coherence cluster has been started and can be accessed via the "Federation" menu.
<p><p>
The federated caching feature federates cache data asynchronously across multiple
geographically dispersed clusters. Cached data is federated across clusters to provide redundancy,
off-site backup, and multiple points of access for application users in different geographical locations.
<p><p>
Once Federation is started any updates to data on either the primary or secondary clusters
are replicated to the other. The default topology, if none is specified, is Active-Active.
<p><p>
To configure a Federated cache, change your distributed-scheme to a federated-scheme in your cache configuration.
<pre>
  &lt;federated-scheme&gt;
    &lt;scheme-name&gt;federated-scheme&lt;/scheme-name&gt;
    ...
    &lt;autostart&gt;true&lt;/autostart&gt;
  &lt;/federated-scheme&gt;
</pre>
You must also add the clusters into your operational configuration in the federation-config section.
<pre>
  &lt;federation-config&gt;
    &lt;participants&gt;
      &lt;participant&gt;
        &lt;name&gt;PrimaryCluster&lt;/name&gt;
        &lt;initial-action&gt;start&lt;/initial-action&gt;
        &lt;name-service-addresses&gt;
          &lt;socket-address&gt;
            &lt;address&gt;127.0.0.1&lt;/address&gt;
            &lt;port&gt;7574&lt;/port&gt;
          &lt;/socket-address&gt;
        &lt;/name-service-addresses&gt;
      &lt;/participant&gt;
      &lt;participant&gt;
        &lt;name&gt;SecondaryCluster&lt;/name&gt;
        &lt;initial-action&gt;pause&lt;/initial-action&gt;
        &lt;name-service-addresses&gt;
          &lt;socket-address&gt;
            &lt;address&gt;127.0.0.1&lt;/address&gt;
            &lt;port&gt;7575&lt;/port&gt;
          &lt;/socket-address&gt;
        &lt;/name-service-addresses&gt;
      &lt;/participant&gt;
    &lt;/participants&gt;
  &lt;/federation-config&gt;
</pre>
